Remembering the Doll Family and Dolletta
June 2017 Remembering the Doll Family and Dolletta The Doll Family and Dolletta: the World’s Smallest Mother – see page 2. Webfooters Post Card Club PO Box 17240 Portland OR 97217-0240 www.thewebfooters.com Harry Doll and The Doll Family Harry Doll (1902-1985) was billed as the World’s Smallest Man. The Doll Family, also billed as The Dancing Dolls as well as the Earles Family, were a quartet of four American dwarf siblings born in Germany who were popular performers in circuses and sideshows in the United States from about 1914 until their retirement in the mid-1950s. They also appeared briefly in films. 2 Grace and Harry Doll, who performed together on stage are shown in about 1924. The Dolls were four of seven children born to Emma and Gustav Schneider in Stolpen, Germany (the other three were average-sized). Freida (Grace Doll) Schneider was born March 12, 1899 and Harry was born Kurt Schneider on April 3, 1902. Harry and Grace were the first of the quartet to perform in sideshows, as "Hansel and Gretel". In 1914, American entrepreneur Bert W. Earles saw them and brought them to the United States to tour with the 101 Ranch Wild West Show. The siblings lived in Pasadena, California, with the Earles family. Earles also brought Daisy and Tiny to the United States (in 1922 and 1926, respectively), where they joined Harry and Grace in their act. 3 At this time, the Dolls began touring with Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus, where they sang, danced, and rode horses and wagons for the next 30 years. -

Apontamentos Sobre O Corpo Monstruoso
REVISTA LUMEN ET VIRTUS ISSN 2177-2789 VOL. VI Nº 14 DEZEMBRO/2015 APONTAMENTOS SOBRE O CORPO MONSTRUOSO Profª Drª Annateresa Fabris1 http://lattes.cnpq.br/4678648388246134 RESUMO – Representado por seres anômalos reais, Monstros (1932) foi considerado um ataque violento contra os sentimentos e os estômagos do público. As razões do fracasso do filme de Tod Browning serão analisadas a partir da perspectiva da história do monstro a fim de compreender seu repúdio pela crítica e pelo público. PALAVRAS-CHAVE – Monstros; Tod Browning; bizarrices; monstruosidade; sideshow. ABSTRACT – Performed by real oddities Freaks (1932) was considered an onslaught upon the feelings and the stomachs of the audience. The reasons of the failure of Tod Browning’s movie will be examined from the perspective of the monster’s history in order to grasp the aversion of critics and audience. 24 KEYWORDS – Freaks; Tod Browning; oddities; monster; sideshow. Prólogo Em 1923, a Metro Goldwin Mayer adquire por oitocentos dólares os direitos do conto “Spurs” [Esporas], que Tod [Clarence Aaron] Robbins havia publicado em 1917 no Munsey Magazine. Seis anos mais tarde, Tod [Charles Albert] Browning, que já havia dirigido uma película inspirada num trabalho de Robbins, A trindade maldita (The Unholy Three, 1925), é incumbido de transpor “Spurs” para as telas, dando início a uma história complexa, eivada de preconceitos contra o “diferente”. De “Spurs”, o roteiro do filme retém apenas o triângulo amoroso formado pelo anão Jacques Courbé e um casal de amantes, os acrobatas Jeanne Marie (“escultural rubia de tipo amazónico”) e Simon 1Professora Titular aposentada da ECA/USP.

Daisy Earles' was most well known for her part in " Freaks " in 1932. However, the film was considered horrifying and was shown in the U.S. with many cuts, banned in England, and in Canada was called "brutal and grotesque". The director's name was Tod Browning, and this idea to make a movie out of a short story later grew to be Freaks, in which Harry would have the lead role and star along his little sister Daisy, known at the time as "Midget Mae West." But first, in 1925, he starred in another Tod Browning silent movie, The Unholy Three, to great success. -
